Amboseli National Park Crowned by Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak, Amboseli National Park is one of Kenya’s most famous parks.

The name “Amboseli” comes from a Maasai word meaning “salt dust”, and it is one of the best places in Africa to see large herds of elephants up close.

Nature lovers can explore five different habitats here ranging from the dry bed of Lake Amboseli, to wetlands with sulphur springs, to savannah and woodlands. 

They can also visit the local Masai community living around the park and experience their authentic culture.
